Lenore Ulric (July 21, 1892 - December 30, 1970) was a star of the Broadway stage and Hollywood films of the silent film and early sound era.
Discovered in 1913 by theatre David Balisco, who would go on to manage her stage career, she was noted for portraying fiery, hot-blooded women of the typical "femme fatale."
Her father, Frank Xavier Zulrich, was a US Army hospital steward. He reportedly named his daughter Lenore due to his fondness for the Edgar Allan Poe poem, "The Raven". She later dropped the "h" from her surname.
During the height of her career, Ulric was considered one if the American theater's "great stars."
